| The Amiga was the first hugely
popular 16 bit home computer, and was the envy of all the 8 bit
owners in the 80's and early 90's... With graphics closer to the arcade, and impressive digital sound, the Amiga dominated home computing until the 486's stared to give the PC superior power... while often graphically comparable to the Atari ST... the Amiga's superior sound... with 4 PCM channels brought high quality music to games and amateur musicians |

Palette Definitions
| Palette definitions on the Amiga are performed by writing to
memory registers between $DFF180 and $DFF1BE Definitions can be performed by writing a word to these registers, with 4 bits per channel in the format shown to the right |

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| There are a set of 32 words between
$DFF180 and $DFF1BE, We don't actually set these directly, we want to change them within our copperlist! |

Hardware Sprites
| There are 8 hardware sprites on the Amiga, Hardware Sprites are 16
pixels wide, and can be any height... each sprite is 4 colors
(2bpp), but Sprites 0&1, 2&3 etc Hardware sprites use a set of pointers, pointing to a sprite table in 'Chip Ram'... this table defines a series of XY positions and bitmap data, that are used by the sprite DMA to define the image... The format of the header is as follows:
The end of each Sprite list ends 0,0 We need to define the pointers to the sprite data, we do this in the Copperlist in the following way: move.l #StartSprite0,d0 move.w #$0122,(a6)+ ; StartSprite0 pointer (low 15 bits) move.w d0,(a6)+ swap d0 move.w #$0120,(a6)+ ; StartSprite0 pointer (high 3 bits) move.w d0,(a6)+ The pointer addresses for other sprites are shown in the table below, you should define all the sprites, even if they point to an empty list... Once we've defined our sprites, we need to turn the sprite DMA on: move.w #%1000001000100000,DMACON ; DMA set ON - DMA control (and blitter status) read |

Hardware Sprites Pixel data
| The Sprites are always 16 pixels
wide, and by default 2bpp (4 colors)... each line of the sprite is
made up of 2 words of data... The first Word is effectively the 1st bitplane of the sprite. The second Word is effectively the 2st bitplane of the sprite. The third word will be the 1st bitplane of the 2nd line - and so on! If we attach Sprite 1 to Sprite 0 - we effectively increase it to 16 colors (4bpp) - adding an extra 2 bit-planes to the sprite! Note: We can only attach pairs of sprites, 0+1, 2+3, 4+5 or 6+7... we cannot attach sprite 0 to sprite 2! |

4 color Hardware sprites use 3 colors from palette 17-31... color 0 is
always transparent... the colors vary depending on the sprite number
16 color sprites use colors 17-31

Sound ports on the Amiga
|
We need to use the Chip registers to control the sound, but unlike with the graphics, we're not going to use the Copper Chip. When we specify the address of the sample, we need this to be in Chip ram (Defined with 'Section ChipRAM,Data_c') |

We're going to
use Channel 0 and Channel 1 to make a 'mono sound... As each channel is 16 bytes apart, we can specify the registers of Channel1 as Channel0's +16 - Eg: DFF0A2+16 for DFF0B2 This will make it easier to see we're changing the equivalent setting of Channel 1 when we set both together. |
Joystick reading
Joysticks on the Amiga connect to the Mouse ports... the data is
'encoded' in the bits of the Horizontal Data
| NAME | ADDR | FUNCTION |
| JOY0DAT | $DFF00A | Joystick-mouse 0 data (vert,horiz) |
| JOY1DAT | $DFF00C | Joystick-mouse 1 data (vert,horiz) |

by Bits in $DFF0A/C |
| Right | 1 |
| Left | 9 |
| Down | 1 XOR 0 |
| UP | 9 XOR 8 |

| $BFE001 | FIR1 / FIR0 / RDY / TK0 / WPRO / CHNG / LED / OVL |
| $BFE201 | Direction for bits of port A ($BFE001)... 1=Out / 0=In |

These can be used to combine bits from multiple sources, Remember A and B can be bitshifted, and A can be masked. The MinTerm we use will define the resulting data we write to D. the Sources A,B and C can be bitmap sprites, Masks or the current screen data (for XOR or masked sprites). ABCD must be in CHIP RAM.
Surprisingly Bitshifting does not affect speed, however unsurprisingly the more DMA channels we use, the slower the transfer will be.
See the Amiga Hardware Manual for more Blitting details
Minterms
'MinTerms' are Logical operations used by BLIT function - these are selected by the bottom 8 bits of BLTCON0 ($DFF040)
In the charts below, ! means NOT (Bits flipped)... in bit logic terms * is effectively AND ... + is effectively OR
| $F0 |
D=A |
| $0F |
D=!A |
| $CC |
D=B |
| $33 |
D=!B |
| $AA |
D=C |
| $55 |
D=!C |
| $A0 |
D=A*C |
$C0 |
D=A*B | $88 |
D=B*C |
| $50 |
D=A*!C |
$30 | D=A*!B | $44 | D=B*!C |
| $0A |

| $05 |
D=!A*!C | $03 | D=!A*!B | $11 | D=!B*!C |

| $3F |

| $5F |
D=!A+!C |
| $F0 | D=A | PSET | A=Sprite D=ScreenRam |
| $CA |
D=A*B+!A*C |
MASK |
A=SpriteMask B=Sprite C=CurrentScreenRam D=ScreenRam |
| $5A |
D=!A*C+A*!C |
XOR |
A=Sprite C=CurrentScreenRam D=ScreenRam |
The above examples can also be performed in other ways!
Combining Minterms
| Multiple Minterms can be added by ORing... for example:
D=A is $F0 |
Multiple minterms can be multiplied by ANDing... for example:
D=A is $F0 |
 |
'Minterms' are
a boolean algebra thing!... but you only need to know which number
code to use for your blitter. If you're feeling brainy, and want to become a super smarypants, you can learn more about Minterms here... Just be careful your head doesn't explode with all the maths! |
